Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to obser ve speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the par t of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
Th
e cruise control is switched on
manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and engagement of:
- at least four th gear on a manual gearbox,
- second gear on an electronic or automatic gearbox, in manual driving mode,
- position A
on an electronic gearbox or D
on an automatic gearbox.
The controls o
f this system are grouped
together at the steering wheel. 1.Cruise control mode selection wheel.
2. Decrease value or speed setting on the flybutton.3.
Increase value or speed setting on the flybutton.
4. Cruise control pause / resume button.
5. Memorised speeds display button.
For more information on the list of memorisedspeeds, refer to "Memorising speeds" section).
Displays in the instrument panel
Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value. Th
e cruise control is paused
manually or
by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or
on triggering of the ESP system for safety
reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the programmed cruise speed is reached again.

Safety
Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection
The system continuously monitors thepressures on the four tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever
y time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed. The system triggers an aler t as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system does not replace the vigilance or theresponsibility of the driver. This system does not avoid the need tocheck the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) every month as well as before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres impairsroad holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear,particularly under arduous condition(high loading, high speed, long journey). S
ystem which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for your vehicle can be found on the tyrepressure label (see the "Identificationmarkings" section). Tyre pressures should be checkedwhen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderatespeeds). Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyresincreases fuel consumption.

Safety
Under-inflation alert
Reinitialisation
This is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied byan audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
A label reminds you of the need to reinitialise
the system every time one or more tyre
pressure is adjusted, and after changing one or
more wheels.
)Reduce speed immediately, avoidexcessive steering movements and sudden
braking . )Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so.
) In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),or ) if you have a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold, or )
if it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not always cause visible bulging of the tyre. Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual check. The aler t is maintained until the system is reinitialised.
